For me retiring wasn't hard once I knew that that was the decision I was going to make.
When I was younger, I thought about retiring.
What do gardeners do when they retire?
Old teachers never die, they just grade away.
Once I retire, I'm retiring. I'm done.
At age 20, we worry about what others think of us. At age 40, we don't care what they think of us. At age 60, we discover they haven't been thinking of us at all.
We have to thank God for this retirement.
